6-Allyl(diallyl, prop-2-yn-1-yl)amino-1-R-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4(5H)-ones reacted with iodine to give angularly fused 8-iodomethyl-7,8-dihydro-1-R-imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazolo[4,3-e]pyrimidin-4(6H)-ones which were treated with sodium acetate to obtain 8-methylidene-1-R-7,8-dihydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyrazolo-[4,3-e]pyrimidin-4(6H)-ones as a result of elimination of hydrogen iodide. 8-Methylidene-1-R-7,8-dihydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyrazolo[4,3-e]pyrimidin-4(6H)-ones were converted into 8-methyl-1-R-imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazolo-[4,3-e]pyrimidin-4(5H)-ones on heating to the melting point. 8-Methylidene-1-phenyl-7,8-dihydroimidazo-[1,2-a]pyrazolo[4,3-e]pyrimidin-4(6H)-one underwent isomerization into linearly fused 6-methyl-1-phenyl-1,8-dihydro-4H-imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-one on heating in sulfuric acid.

The synthesis and chemical reactions of certain pyrazolo[1,5-a]-1,3,5-triazines

3-Aminopyrazole was utilized as a starting material for the preparation of certain pyrazolo-[1,5-a]-1,3,5-triazines. 4-Chloro-2-methylthiopyrazolo[1,5-a]-1,3,5-triazine was prepared and used for studies of nucleophilic displacement reactions, and it has been found that both the chloro and methylthio groups may be displaced by nucleophiles. By modifications of these procedures we have prepared the adenine, hypoxanthine, and xanthine analogs of the pyrazolo-[1,5-a]-1,3,5-triazine ring system. Electrophilic substitution occurs in the 8-position of this ring system. The methyl group was introduced into the 4-position by a novel ring opening and ring closing of the 1,3,5-triazine ring.

Thermal decomposition of the diazonium sulfate derived from N-methyl-(1-phenyl-3-methylpyrazol-5-yl)-2-aminobenzamide afforded products formulated as 1-phenyl-3-methyl[2]benzopyrano[4,3-c]pyrazol-5-one (yield 10%), 1,4-dimethyl-3-phenylpyrazolo[3,4-c]isoquinolin-5-one (yield 10%), N-methyl-(1-phenyl-3-methylpyrazol-5-yl)-2-hydroxybenzamide (yield 8%) and 4′-hydroxy-2,3′-dimethyl-1′-phenylspiro[isoindoline-1,5′-[2]-pyrazolin]-3-one (yield 20%). Decomposition of the diazonium sulfate derived from N-methyl-(1,3-diphenylpyrazol-5-yl)-2-aminobenzamide gave products formulated as 7,9-dimethyldibenzo[e,g]pyrazolo[1,5-a][1,3]-diazocin-10-(9H)one (yield 8%), 4-methyl-1,3-diphenylpyrazolo[3,4-c]isoquinolin-5-one (yield 7%) and 4′-hydroxy-2-methyl-1′,3′-diphenylspiro[isoindoline-1,5′-[2]pyrazolin]3-one (yield 10%). The spiro compounds 6a,b underwent thermal and acid-catalysed conversion into the hitherto unknown 2-benzopyrano[4,3-c]pyrazole ring system 7a,b in good yield.

The first synthesis of a purine nucleoside analog containing a bridgehead nitrogen atom is here reported. The direct glycosylation of the trimethylsilyl derivative of s-triazolo[2,3-a] pyrimid-7-one has been shown to give 3-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)-s-triazolo[2,3-a]pyrimid-7-one (V) and 4-(β-D-ribof'uranosyl)-s-lriazolo[2,3-α]pyrimid-7-one (VII). The nueleoside V may he considered a close analog of inosine in which the nitrogen N₁ and C₅ of inosine have been interchanged. Bro-minalion of the tri-O-acelyl derivative IV gave, after deblocking, 6-bromo-3-(β-D-ribofurnaosyl)-s-triazolo[2,3-a] pyrimid-7-one (IX). Structural assignments of the nucleosides were made on the basis of comparison of the ultraviolet absorption spectral characteristics with 3-methyl-s-triazolo-[2,3-a]pyrimid-7-one (XI) and 4-methyl-s-lriazolo[2,3-a Jpyrimid-7-one (XII) prepared by a standard procedure from 7-methoxy-s-triazolo(2,3-a] pyrimidine (X).

Dichloro- and diazido- derivatives were obtained from the reaction of pyridopyrazlopyrimidine derivatives with POCl₃ followed by NaN₃. The tetrahetrocyclic systems were formed by cyclization of 4-chloro-3-(2-chloroethyl)-2,8,10-trimethylpyrido[2′,3′:3,4]pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine with the appropriate primary amines. The structures of all compounds were established by NMR and mass spectra.     

Reactivity of 7-(2-dimethylaminovinyl)pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines: Synthesis of pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrido[3,4-e]pyrimidine derivatives as potential benzodiazepine receptor ligands. 2

A series of pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrido[3,4-e]pyrimidin-6-ones was obtained by reaction of ammonium acetate with ethyl 7-dimethylaminovinylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-6-carboxylates and these had been prepared from ethyl 7-methylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-6-carboxylates by reaction with dimethylformamide dimethylacetal. Under these conditions the compounds bearing a 2-hydroxy group were also O-alkylated. During the preparation of the ethyl 2-hydroxy-7-methyl-3-phenylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-6-carboxylate the corresponding 5-methyl isomer was isolated and identified.     

Synthesis of 4,6-disubstituted-7-β-D-ribofuranosyl- and arabinofuranosylpyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidines and certain related ribonucleosides

Several disubstituted pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine, pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine and thiazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine ribonucleosides have been prepared as congeners of uridine and cytidine. Glycosylation of the trimethylsilyl (TMS) derivative of pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine-4,6(1H,5H,7H)-dione ( 4 ) with 1-O-acetyl-2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-D-ribofuranose ( 5 ) in the presence of TMS triflate afforded 7-(2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-β-D-ribofuranosyl)pyrazolo-[3,4-d]pyrimidine-4,6(1H,5H)-dione ( 6 ). Debenzoylation of 6 gave the uridine analog 7-β-D-ribofuranosylpyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine-4,6(1H,5H)-dione ( 3 ), identical with 7-ribofuranosyloxoallopurinol reported earlier. Thiation of 6 gave 7 , which on debenzoylation afforded 7-β-D-ribofuranosyl-6-oxopyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine-4(1H,5H)-thione ( 8 ). Ammonolysis of 7 at elevated temperature gave a low yield of the cytidine analog 4-amino-7-β-D-ribofuranosylpyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-6(1H)-one ( 11 ). Chlorination of 6 , followed by ammonolysis, furnished an alternate route to 11 . A similar glycosylation of TMS-4 with 2,3,5-tri-O-benzyl-α-D-arabinofuranosyl chloride ( 12 ) gave mainly the N7-glycosylated product 13 , which on debenzylation provided 7-β-D-arabinofuranosylpyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine-4,6(1H,5H)-dione ( 14 ). 4-Amino-7-β-D-arabinofuranosyl-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-6(1H)-one ( 19 ) was prepared from 13 via the C4-pyridinium chloride intermediate 17 . Condensation of the TMS derivatives of 7-hydroxy- ( 20 ) or 7-aminopyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-5(4H)-one ( 23 ) with 5 in the presence of TMS triflate gave the corresponding blocked nucleosides 21 and 24 , respectively, which on deprotection afforded 7-hydroxy- 22 and 7-amino-4-β-D-ribofuranosylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-5-one ( 25 ), respectively. Similarly, starting either from 2-chloro ( 26 ) or 2-aminothiazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine-5,7-(4H,6H)-dione ( 29 ), 2-amino-4-β-D-ribofuranosylthiazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine-5,7(6H)-dione ( 28 ) has been prepared. The structure of 25 was confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies.     

Synthesis of N-Alkylated Derivatives of Pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine and Their Reaction with Methylamine

With the object of studying the factors influencing the course of enamine rearrangements, we have carried out the N-alkylation of alkyl- and aryl-substituted pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines. Using the NOEDIF NMR spectroscopic method for the cases of 5,7-dimethyl-2-phenyl- and 2,5,7-triphenylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines it was found that addition of the alkyl group occurs at the N₍₄₎ atom of the pyrimidine fragment in the pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine. It was shown that, when reacting with an alcoholic solution of methylamine, the 5,7-dimethyl-2-phenyl- and 2,5,7-triphenylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine iodomethylates undergo decomposition to give 5-methylamino-3-phenylpyrazole and 5-(1,3-diphenyl-3-methylamino-2-propenylid-1-ene)amino-3-phenylpyrazole.     

Cyclocondensation of [1-Cyano-2-(methylsulfanyl)vinyl]triphenylphosphonium Iodide with Amidine Nucleophiles

The substituted vinylphosphonium salt (E)-MeSCH=C(CN)P⁺Ph₃I⁻ readily cyclizes under the action of benzamidine and 3-amino-s-triazole, but it does not enter cyclocondensation with 2-aminopyridine. The structure of the cyclization product with 3-amino-s-triazole was confirmed by its transformation to 7-imino-6-(triphenylphosphoranylidene)-6,7-dihydro-s-triazolo[1,5]pyrimidine which was identified by X-ray diffraction. This stabilized ylide and its analogs proved useful starting materials for regioselective syntheses of 2-R-4-alkyl-4,7-dihydro-s-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-7-ones.__________Translated from Zhurnal Obshchei Khimii, Vol. 75, No. 4, 2005, pp. 565–570.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Smolii, Muzychka, Chernega, Drach.     

Synthesis of 2,3-Dihydrothiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-ones by a Michael-type Tandem Reaction

Summary. Although various thiazoles are known in literature for their biological and pharmacological properties only a few multi-step synthesis pathways for the preparation of thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidinones have been reported, which are tedious and time-consuming. An alternative synthesis pathway is described, which allows the preparation of 2,3-dihydrothiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-ones in a one-step process based on a Michael-type tandem reaction. By heating of 2-thiobarbituric acid with ethyl 4-bromocrotonate in ethanol at 60°C for 2 h, a 2,3-dihydrothiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-one was obtained in 73% yield, whereas carrying out the reaction at room temperature results in the formation of an unstable unsaturated ester. The structures of both, the α,β-unsaturated ester as well as the 2,3-dihydrothiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-one were confirmed by NMR spectroscopy. Additionally, the structure of the 2,3-dihydrothiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-one was investigated by single-crystal X-ray analysis. The described approach offers a significant improvement over previously reported synthesis pathways because it allows the simple preparation of 2,3-dihydrothiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-ones with good yields in a one-step reaction.

Synthesis of pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimido[4,5-d]pyrimidin-5-ones. Cyclization reaction of 4-[(3-hydroxy-2-pyridyl)amino]-2-phenyl-5-pyrimidinecarboxylic acid with acetic anhydride

Treatment of 4-[(3-hydroxy-2-pyridyl)amino]-2-phenyl-5-pyrimidinecarboxylic acid (X) with acetic anhydride under refluxing conditions afforded 10-hydroxy-2-phenyl-5H-pyrido[1,2-a]-pyrimido[4,5-d]pyrimidin-5-one acetate (IX). The intermediate X was prepared from 4-chloro-2-phenyl-5-pyrimidinecarboxylic acid ethyl ester (V). The reaction of V with the sodium salt of 2-amino-3-hydroxypyridine at room temperature gave 4-(2-amino-3-pyridyloxy)-2-phenyl-5-pyrimidinecarboxylic acid ethyl ester (VI). Treatment of VI with a hot aqueous sodium hydroxide solution and subsequent acidification gave X. Involvement of 4-[(3-hydroxy-2-pyridyl)amino]-2-phenyl-5-pyrimidinecaroboxylic acid ethyl ester (VIII) (Smiles rearrangement product) as an intermediate in the above alkaline hydrolysis reaction of VI to X was demonstrated by the isolation of VIII and its subsequent conversion into X under alkaline hydrolysis conditions. Acetylation of VIII with acetic anhydride in pyridine solution gave 4-[(3-hydroxy-2-pyridyl)amino]-2-phenyl-5-pyrimidinecarboxylic acid ethyl ester acetate (XI), which afforded IX on fusion at 220°. This alternative synthesis of IX from XI supported the structural assignment of IX. Fusion of VI gave 10-hydroxy-2-phenyl-5H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimido]4,5-d]pyrimidin-5-one (VII). The latter was also obtained when VIII was fused at 210°. Acetylation of VII with acetic anhydride afforded IX.     

Studies on ketene and its derivatives. Part 119. Reactions of haloketenes with 2-arylideneaminopyridines

Reactions of haloketenes with 2-arylideneaminopyridines were examined. Reaction of dichloroketene with 2-benzylideneaminopyridines gave 2,2-dichloro-3-phenyl-3-(2-pyridylamino)propanoic acids and 3-chloro-2-phenylpyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4(4H)-ones. Similar reaction of dichloroketene with 2-(2-furfurylideneamino)-pyridines gave 3-chloro-2-(2-furyl)pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-(4H)-ones. Chloroketene and chlorophenylketene also reacted with 2-arylideneaminopyridines to give pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4(4H)-ones. Ring transformations of pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidin-4-(4H)-ones were carried out to give 1,8-naphthyridin-4(1H)-ones and imidazo[1,2-a]-pyridines.     

Selenium heterocycles. XV. Reaction of 2-aminoselenazoles and 2-amino-1,3,4-selenadiazoles with acetylenic compounds

2-Aminoselenazoles with ethyl propiolate or dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate gave 7H-selenazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-7-ones. 2-Amino-1,3,4-selenadiazoles with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate gave 7H-1,3,4-selenadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-7-ones; with ethyl propiolate the reaction took an unusual path and 2-carbethoxy-5H-selenazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-one was isolated. The assignment of the structures were supported by spectra analysis.
